This was a VERY odd box. There was a good number of pre-1959 nickels but no silver, a single slick dateless buffalo (1913 P Type II after acid dating), and a couple 2024 P, so typical except for the two 1939 P FS-801 that were literally two rolls apart in the box. Notably there were no keys or semi-key dates, which though not unusual, seems strange given the overall number of older coins. No complaints but just very unlike my average box.

Pound_foolish, that's pretty odd. Nice finds for sure.  Did you check the modern nickels for Doubled Dies? There's tons of DDR's known for the modern nickels. If you don't collect minor Doubled Dies, then I understand.

E&V, I don't currently though I went through a phase when I pulled aside every 2023 P DDR I found and being just outside of Philly I just kept piling them up for no good reason. I have saved a bunch of the better examples but returned the majority of them to the wild. Also wanted to mention that when I posted the second coin, I accidentally added an image of the obverse of the first coin, so I just went back to the post with the second coin and added fresh whole-coin images both obverse and reverse.
